Glenn Sparkman Recalled From Triple-A
6 years agoThe Kansas City Royals recalled pitcher Glenn Sparkman from Triple-A Omaha mere hours after sending him there. Sparkman was originally demoted to make room for Blaine Boyer as he came off the disabled list, but less than 18 hours later, Sparkman was recalled to take Danny Duffy's spot as he was placed on the DL. Sparkman will also take Duffy's spot for his start on Thursday, less than a week after manager Ned Yost told reporters that Sparkman would not be starting this season. Unfortunately, Sparkman hasn't pitched terribly well this season, posting a 5.06 ERA in the majors in relief. Between his poor performance, the fact that this is his first official start in about six weeks, and the team's terrible performance overall, fantasy owners should avoid Sparkman for now.
